Back on Aug. 11th was the last time that google shows any visits to my site from MSN Live Search. After finding this problem I started checking the data more closely, and found that google is only registering some of the visits, but not all. I don't see any pattern except the MSN search doesn't show up at all.

I contacted google and they wrote back that my site wasn't showing up in the MSN search and that was why I didn't see any results. Google shows I had 11 visitors yesterday, total. I wrote back and told them I show 12 visitors from MSN, and more than 30 visitors total. I haven't gotten a reply yet.

Has anyone seen anything like this?
I did get a reply from Google, but it was a can response, and worthless. My email did do something, and now google shows 1 visit from MSN search (there were two, but it did show up). This is the first time since Aug 11th that google is showing visits from MSN, and their total visits, and User Tracking is much closer (29 user tracking, 23 google).

Google Analytics can be a very useful tool, but you have to be able to trust their data. Since they were off by 2/3 day before yesterday, and are only off by 6 yesterday I think they have found the problem and fixed it. I only have 30-50 visits a day, so it’s easy for me to see "discrepancies". If you have a site that has hundreds of visits a day, checking the data that google is giving you could take some time, but may very well be worth every minute.
